Devotion Dilemma

We have (during these too-busy days that we "live" in) what I call, a devotion dilemma. Yes, sadly, it seems that people these days have little or no time at all for praying. However, if we are to ever learn to pray, it will take time and plenty of it. If we are to ever know God in ever-increasing intimacy it will require seasons of prayer in His presence, not just seconds of prayer as we wrecklessly race into the future. Let us take time immediately for intimacy with Immanuel or time will take us ultimately from His presence for eternity.

Lord, teach us TO pray... -- Luke 11:1 (NIV)

IF MY PEOPLE... WILL? I WILL! God's Promise in 2 Chron. 7:14.

So true. Great sermon today! A challenge to all of us. Your prayer closet journey has been very inspiring! I pray I will meet up to the challenge, starting tomorrow!

Let's practice kinship with Abba Father in the secret chamber with the door closed. In His presence that's where His children belong. ALL JOY!
